Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned redcoatasher/n8n-skills-redux at 016cdb4699.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill

What it does

This skill allows AI agents to configure nodes within n8n workflows. It can set node properties like API URLs, authentication details (API keys, tokens), and other custom configurations needed for specific integrations. The agent can dynamically adjust these settings based on context or user input, making workflows more flexible and adaptable. This reduces manual configuration steps and streamlines automation processes.

When to use it

  • Automating repetitive n8n workflow setup: Configure a new workflow with pre-defined node settings instead of manually entering them each time.
  • Dynamic API integration adjustments: Change API endpoints or authentication methods based on environment (development, staging, production).
  • Personalized workflows for different users: Tailor n8n workflows to individual user preferences by setting specific node configurations.
  • Adapting to changing external services: Automatically update API keys or URLs when a third-party service changes its credentials.

Key capabilities

  • Node property configuration
  • API URL management
  • Authentication settings (API Keys, Tokens)
  • Dynamic configuration based on context

Example prompts

  • "Set the 'HTTP Request' node in my workflow to use this API endpoint: https://api.example.com/data."
  • “Update the authentication token for the ‘Slack’ node to YOUR_SLACK_TOKEN.”
  • "Configure the 'Google Sheets' node with credentials from environment variable 'GOOGLE_SHEETS_CREDENTIALS'."

Tips & gotchas

  • Requires an existing n8n workflow and access to its configuration.
  • The agent needs appropriate permissions within n8n to modify workflows.
